Here's a copy&paste to fix this issue:

You can delete /usr/share/fonts/OTF/mplayer2_osd_font.otf once the fix comes to Arch repos.

On the other hand, this thread is about mplayer2, and here the issue is indeed "fixed" by changing the format of the font into one that does not trigger the fontconfig bug.

No intervention/hackery on my part of any kind, re: fixes in this thread.

Did you save the font as /usr/share/fonts/<dir>/osd_font.pfb, just like I suggested above? If you did, then you should see something like in the screenshot from my mplayer2 running. All other symbols (~13 altogether) are displayed correctly, too…

Not three dots.
